Sergej Krylov x Konstantin Shamray Live at Toorak

Live at Yours opens its 2026 season in luminous style, within the mood-lit splendour of Toorak Synagogue, where golden arches and soft shadows create an atmosphere of quiet wonder.

Italian-based violinist Sergej Krylov, hailed by Mstislav Rostropovich as one of the five greatest violinists in the world, joins Konstantin Shamray, a Live at Yours favourite, for an evening of rare electricity and emotional depth.

Their program blazes with the gypsy passion and French flair of Ravel, the sparkling wit of Saint-Saëns, and the radiant romanticism of Franck, music that dances between fire and tenderness, precision and abandon.
Renowned across Europe for his fusion of searing virtuosity and luminous warmth, Krylov makes his maiden Australian tour — an unmissable chance to experience one of the world’s great violinists up close.

The program includes Camille Saint-Saensm, Maurice Ravel, and César Franck. Sergej Krylov performs on the Stradivarius “Camposelice” (1710), generously on loan from the Nippon Music Foundation.

An evening where sound, space and spirit become one, and every note feels close enough to touch.
